"THIS GUITAR WILL EAT YOUR FACE!!!!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I dont think i will sell this guitar ever,even when i die its going with me to my grave and if it was stolen or broke(unlikly)i would replace it.
Sound
The distortion on this guitar is AMAZING!!!Dont let the one pickup fool you ,this thing will eat you alive.
Features
Some people dont like the fact that it only has one pickup but if your a guitarist like me and you just cruze on through your solos it is an awsome guitar.The floyd rose is an original so you know you can depend on it to never go out of tune,or atleast mine dosent.
Ease of Use
Just plug it in and play and there you go.The only thing is sittin down and playin it but fortunate for me i dont do that alot.I dont think either one of my four guitars could compare to this one but thats just my opinion.
Quality
I havent found one single problem with mine,the finish is wickid and i can depend on it at any of my gigs.
Value
In my opinion this guitar is worth WAYYYYYYYYY more than they are askin for it and thats alotttttt!
Manufacturer Support
Havent had to even mess with them so they must be doing a good job:)
The Wow Factor
OMG it is the sexiest guitar ive yet to see cause it feels so comfortable to play(that is standing)but when you play it it makes you feel like you could do anything wich you can if you try.

Jackson RR24 Randy Rhoads Customer Review

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Purchaser zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I have no regret getting this product although it's hard to change strings on this guitar. Get one if you have plenty of money to spend. THIS WILL RIP YOUR FACE OFF EVEN WITH 10W PRACTICE AMP.
Sound
The best sound for Heavy metal. even sounds good on 10W amp. This guitar suites my style because i want heavy distorted tone with edges and guitar gives you that tone. its also excellent on clean tone. This guitar is about bright and heavy.
Features
its got everything you need. i am little disappointed because it has only one pick up on bridge. But do not underestimate this guitar. this guitar will rip people's face off.
Ease of Use
neck is very comfortable. i like using tremolo bar and make random noises when i'm bored. you need to have stool to make yourself comfortable not chair.
Quality
finish is nice and the neck is painted. Very flawless. only problem was the volume knob fell off. So i had to put it back on. It was no problem.
Value
It is still pricey. But compare to alexi laiho's signature, which has similar specs to this rr24, it is great deal. alexi's esp cost about 3grand. I say its worth it with EMG 81, neck thru, and best part is it has original floyd rose.
The Wow Factor
V shaped guitar is the most heavy metal guitar and it is very slick. I love the color red on bevel. Black color makes it more metal than ever. Most Metal guitar you will ever get.

"Steve Lyman digs the jackson rr24"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars

cool
Sound
great sound. the emg sounds lots like a gibson pickup. this guitar can basically rip it up on sound like my gibson les paul. the emgs sound more powerful than the seymour duncans by lots.
Features
just right
Ease of Use
good
Quality
nice guitar. my second japan made jackson i own and the quality of the first jackson lead me to buy this one. don't mess with the ibanez stuff. Jackson kills ibanez-at least in this price range. i tried many ibanez and the jacksons are much higher quality.
Value
I like my les paul custom better but dollar for dollar, the pro line jacksons (not the js series) are the best value in guitars. they are superb for the money. nice stuff.
Manufacturer Support
no need
The Wow Factor
it's a great guitar for the money. OH YEA!! BIG PROBLEM-----the only thing i dont like is the "Blood red" bevels on the black and red ones shows up hot pink-no joke- in many lighting conditions. it sucks but i like the guitar so much i figured what the hell, i guess i will play a pink guitar sometimes. I'd get the white one or something if u r not keen on hot pink.

"Metal Screamer !!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Will own it forever. Would definantely replace it if lost or stolen.
Sound
This Axe sounds amazing. Must be the Alder Body and the Mapple Neck combination. Sounds very aggressive. Definantely a Metal Monster. I may try swappng out the EMG-81 for a Seymour Duncan Blackout but the 81 is ok. since it can be plugged in with no re-wire.
Features
Guitar included a case which is really a nice one. Not a cheap one or a gig bag. The Original Floyd Rose is great and never goes out of tune as my licensed one on my Schecter Damien does drop out of tune? I love that feature. When I'm standing at times I do feel like the guitar leans forward a bit. Not sure if it's the way I have it strapped or not?? Other than that minor issue, I love every bit of this guitar.
Ease of Use
I did notice somewhat of a learning curve on the compound radius fretboard however it only took about a day to get used to it. This Axe definantely is eaiser to hit those high pitched squeals (pinch harmonics) in great style. You do need to have the technique down however it seems that either my technique is improving or this thing just rocks. I think it's a little of both. It definantely will play all your mistakes.
Quality
Made exceptional. Best guitar I have ever owned.
Value
Great for the price. This guitar is worth more than $1100.00
Manufacturer Support
Never had to contact them.
The Wow Factor
Awesome !!

"This Guitar Is Randy Rhoads Worthy... The BEST Guitar to Tribute The Best Musician..."

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Overall, this is the best guitar i've ever played. And i can't believe i own it. I love it that much! I'l NEVER sell it! You've GOT TO HAVE IT... Randy Rhoads Would Be VERY Proud Of This Guitar!!!! As am I!
Sound
The sound quality of this guitar will blow ur mind! I just used one to see if it was as good as people had claimed it to be, and its WAY BETTER THAN THAT! The sound is clean, the guitar plays really well, and it will wipe the floor with other go-get guitars. This guitar is absolutely THE BEST!
Features
I've always been a fan of randy rhoads, i love his music and i believe that his premature death was one of the most tragic things that ever happened to modern rock/metal music. So when i heard that Jackson had made a guitar in his tribute, i had to check it out. I love the custom fretting, the one pickup looks whimpy but its a nuclear bomb compared to other guitars 2 pickups! The body is great, its handles very well and is absolutely amazing to play. Again, this is the best guitar i have ever played. And i OWN 7 guitars and i play the best one in every guitar shop i visit. But the RR24 is above and beyond...
Ease of Use
This guitar handles great! Its easy to play for even my little sister and she just started playing a little less than 7 months ago. And for the people who can really shread a guitar and zip through complex songs with ease, You will love this guitar! It makes those already easy songs even easier and makes them sound a hellova lot better! And even on your own solos and just simple hammer-ons and pull-offs... its amazing.. u have to AT LEAST try this guitar!
Quality
This guitar is as close to perfect as you can get. I play with my band almost three times a week and i NEVER get tired of playing the guitar, I only had to pay 700 for it. And it isnt a bootleg version i swear its the real thing! My band and i played for the opening of a guitar shop and we brought in alot of publicity for them, in return they gave me a discount on the guitar about a 50% discount. But i would have paid the real price OR EVEN MORE just to get it. The finish on the guitar kicks butt, and its well put together! It will be in my casket with me at my funeral. I'll make sure of that. Theres no flawa unless ur trying to play it sitting down, then its a LITTLE troublesome, but nothing u cant deal with. Its a great guitar, the body is smooth and great for anything. I play it all the time...
Value
I got a discount from the shop owner for getting him so much publicity when we played for the shop's grand opening. I only had to pay $785.98, but I would have paid the real price without a doubt and even more to own this guitar. Its that great.
Manufacturer Support
Never had to use them at all... the guitar is that great.
The Wow Factor
This guitar is great, the frets are beautiful, the body is better than that of a runway model, and the colors are vibrant and attention grabbing! this guitar's "sex appeal" is phenomenal!
